Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchased this Parrot Mambo drone for ten year old grandson for Christmas. He is definitely loving it and having a great time. I realize the ratio of charge time to fly time, 30 mins to 10 mins is a little frustrating for a kid, but I understand that it takes this long for even a beginner drone. To make his user time last a little longer, his mom purchased a charge station that hold three batteries at once from Amazon. My only wish is that I would have liked to see this available at Best Buy at time of purchase so I could have included it with his gift. They do not carry any additional batteries for this model. Otherwise, a very good choice for a beginner.

Cons: setting this up with the flypad and downloading the app for video mode is extremely complicated, and Battery life is horrible. Pros: easy for my son to use and guards/propellers pop on and off for collisions so nothing is too badly broken. I should've spent the extra cash for something nicer to avoid these headaches. Buying an extra battery is recommended to have more than 10mins of play time.

Over all for a toy drone it is well made. It has taken quite a few falls. I got this for my daughter. The distance on it is good enough for a kid to learn on and the camera take decent pics and video. Does not come with sd card. Would definitely get extra batteries and a multiple battery charger because flight time on one battery is under 10 min

This is a great beginner drone to start out on, very user friendly and overall just a great flying experience for all. Recommend purchasing additional batteries to prolong flight time. Alot of fun times to be had...

So glad I got this on sale, but $100 for something that worked once is not worth the price. It is extremely challenging to get responsiveness out of the drone, even when it gives you a solid green on both your controller or your phone--yet it won't take off. The one time it was able to take off, it flew for 6 minutes and had to be recharged. Terrible product and sheer buyer's remorse.

Fun drone that flies well, but the battery lasts less than 10 minutes--which means the kids are constantly stopping to charge it. When it takes a half hour to charge the drone but you only get 5 minutes of flying time, it loses its appeal. I would think it could fly for longer periods for the price.
